Running fast is cool, and skincare is good for you.
What do these two have in common?
Nothing, really. At least not that we know of. BUT, we're here with the results from our daily skincare challenge, and we're launching into our run a mile more faster challenge (it's a technical term, trust us).
Much Love, Fam!

We had an absolute blast with our presence challenge. Food journaling was incredibly insightful, and the daily pictures were really interesting to look back on.
That said, it's time for a new challenge! We've been requested to do a skincare challenge. Find out what products we'll be using, and when we'll be using them. Cross your fingers this ends up fun for the two of us!

Being present is always difficult, but modern times make it even more so. Our distraction-oriented culture encourages us to respond to emails and texts ASAP, keep up to date with constantly breaking news, and to never be bored or satisfied.
There's a lot to unpack and a lot to fix, but in an effort to keep things simple, our new challenge is going to be a combination of a daily picture and a food journal. The picture will help us stay "in the moment" more often, and the food journal will help us with being mindful of the present. This will be a really interesting journey, hope you guys enjoy!
